‘Factors Influencing Transfusion Reactions in Paediatric Patients: Active Haemovigilance Data from a Children’s Hospital in India’
This study presents active haemovigilance data from a children’s teaching hospital in North India, analysing the incidence, clinical presentation, imputability assignment, and clinical outcomes of transfusion reactions in paediatric patients.
Key factors found to influence transfusion reaction risk include:
- Prior transfusion history
- Patient’s age
- Type of blood component transfused
- Indication for transfusion
An important contribution towards safer, evidence-based transfusion practices for children.”
